------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Dec 27 18:08:10 +0000 2007 ------- Dear Madam or Sir! I just upgraded from OOo 2.2 to 2.3. To my utter surprise OOoWriter/Web refused to show the HTML source option and the toolbar icon, resp., after opening a HTML document formerly created and edited with 2.2. Digging in the help revealed that I had to save the document explicitly as HTML to enable OOoWriter/Web mode via «Save As …». The associations in the option «Load/Store» weren't messed up. It should be no problem for OOo to examine the «magic number» of a file in addition to its extension, so it can switch between normal OOoWriter/ODF and OOoWriter/Web sans this kludge via «Save As …» in HTML-Format. Please revise your code where this auto-detection has been disabled between 2.2 and 2.3. Switching to source view is crucial for OOoWriter/Web, since it enables you to fine-tune some effects not easily achieved in WYSIWYG. Strangely it hath somehow fixed, but that might be because I opened the files from the tray icon instead of using the «Open with …» function of Explorer. Alternate shells use Explorer for this, too! I have some PDFs with ordinary looking names that can only opened from within Adobe Reader without provoking a «File not found» dialog. Cygwin bash hath problems with the same files, too when running updatedb. Fortunately these files are quite rare. But you should look at the file names Explorer hands over to OOo. I have some rare cases where short mangled 8.3 names were handed over to other programs, including the program path under NT4, W2k, and XP.
